At this moment, Old Ling called Weng Ting by name, clearly not treating her as a young mistress.
While at Old Man Spirit Manor, he could still maintain the attitude of an old servant, but now he had nothing left to lose.
What's more, the Great Elder was present, so he feared nothing.
Sure enough, Old Ling looked towards Weng Yindu, screaming, "Great Elder, I am utterly loyal to the Weng Family. I have dedicated my life for the good of the family."
"But Weng Ting has turned me into this because of some non-combatant trash as an external aid."
Saying this, he pointed at Sikong Jing, "It's this trash that Weng Ting dared to invite such a useless person."
Then, Old Ling revealed Sikong Jing's situation, of course omitting anything about Sikong Jing killing several assassins. Anyway, Old Ling didn't believe Sikong Jing did it alone; someone must have helped him.
Now, Old Ling was ranting recklessly...
All the members of the Weng Family were stunned, mouths agape, following Old Ling's words.
Another elder with a bamboo hat stepped forward, bewilderedly saying, "A non-combatant of the Reverse Soul Realm, are you kidding me?"
The next moment, Weng Wu responded, laughing heartily, "What did I just say, Weng Ting is just bluffing. Her status in the East Dominator Branch is not as high as she says, having only invited such a worthless thing."
As soon as these words came out, cold light flashed in Weng Ting's eyes, and she suddenly disappeared on the spot.
Slap!
A slap landed heavily on Weng Wu's face, abruptly stopping his laughter.
Then came a cry of pain as Weng Wu crashed violently into the crowd...
Meanwhile, Weng Ting turned back and stood in front of Sikong Jing, coldly saying, "Weng Wu, I can disregard whatever you say about me, but if you dare insult a friend I've invited, then don't blame me for slapping you."
This was the attitude Weng Ting wanted Sikong Jing to see...
As her voice fell, the entire scene fell silent; no one expected Weng Ting to take direct action.
And being knocked into the crowd, Weng Wu finally stopped, dumbfoundedly covering his face. Then he erupted with True Qi, yelling, "Weng Ting, you damn dare to sneak attack me, I'll kill you."
After saying this, he roared and charged at Weng Ting, shockingly at the Spirit Martial Stage Spiritual Battle Realm.
And the power flowing through Weng Wu was indeed that of a Fourth Grade Battle Body.
However, Weng Ting's gaze was extremely cold, facing Weng Wu's charge without a care, not even raising her hand.
In her view, Weng Wu could be slapped away effortlessly.
Boom...
Just then, a terrifying aura of the Emperor Martial Stage swept across the scene, as an old yet stalwart figure landed between Weng Ting and Weng Wu, forcefully pushing Weng Wu back.
This person was Family Head Weng Yinke, who shouted sternly, "Everyone calm down."
His voice, charged with True Qi, exploded, making everyone in the venue change their expressions, and under Weng Yinke's pressure, they became completely quiet.
The next moment, Weng Yinke looked at Weng Ting and said, "Ting'er, Weng Wu was wrong to insult our guest, but you need to explain why you only invited a Reverse Soul Realm non-combatant."
Although Weng Yinke was not good at handling mundane family matters, he had to step up at this moment.
Moreover, he was puzzled too.
Why did Weng Ting invite such a weak external aid? He couldn't help but glance again at Zhang Duiyi and others, were these three also weak, contrary to Weng Ting's initial message about Fifth Grade Battle Bodies?
Initially, Weng Ting had informed her family that she would try to invite five Fifth Grade Battle Body super geniuses.
And she assured the family to rest assured...
Just now, Weng Yinke thought the same, which is why he thought one less Fifth Grade Battle Body aid was a shame. But now he realized it wasn't just one less aid, but an additional Reverse Soul Realm non-combatant.
Weng Yinke naturally started speculating and was now also questioning Zhang Duiyi and the others' martial prowess!
At this time, the suppressed Weng Wu directly shouted, "Isn't it obvious? She couldn't really invite any true geniuses."
These words made the Zhang Duiyi siblings' eyes flash coldly, but they were silent.
However, their gazes were already filled with coldness; Weng Wu dared to say they weren't real geniuses.
Meanwhile, Great Elder Weng Yindu also pressured Weng Wu, slowly saying, "Ah Wu, don't speak now. The Family Head will get to the bottom of this, and the Family Head is always fair and just, ensuring a satisfactory resolution for the family and us."
His eyes glinted coldly, but his lips curled into a cold smile.
It was clear that Weng Ting's position in the East Dominator Branch truly wasn't high, or she had offended some significant figure; otherwise, she couldn't have invited such a little non-combatant from the Reverse Soul Realm.
Then Weng Yindu naturally didn't need to say more.
With Weng Yinke's martial fool-like nature, he would definitely handle it in a way that satisfied himself.
Sure enough, Weng Yinke had no idea what the Great Elder was thinking; his expression was somewhat bitter as he asked, "Ting'er, tell Grandpa the truth... Have you really been deceiving me all along, or could you really not get anyone?"
It wasn't that Weng Yinke or others were not perceptive.
But aside from Weng Ting's low status or offending some powerful person, there really was no other reason to invite a Reverse Soul Realm non-combatant.
That said, Weng Ting might have been boasting in the letters she sent home, as Weng Wu said.
Thinking of this, Weng Yinke felt a deep disappointment and anguish!
Weng Ting stared at Weng Yinke and said deeply, "Grandfather, the world has countless kinds of geniuses, not all non-combatants are weak... I have encountered quite a few non-combatants and very formidable individuals."
At this moment, Yang Yi naturally flashed across her mind, he was the first to overturn her understanding of the world.
"Nonsense, non-combatants are weak," Old Ling couldn't help but roar.
Others shook their heads subtly, not recognizing Weng Ting's statement, deeply convinced that non-combatants were useless.
Of course, considering Sikong Jing's age and reaching the Reverse Soul Realm, it was impressive in East Spirit City.
But as long as they weren't battle bodies, it didn't count.
Weng Ting laughed coldly, "Old Ling, have you forgotten who shot the first crossbow arrow at you? You, a Spirit Martial Stage Shadow Control Realm expert, were shot through by Junior Brother Sikong of the Martial Battle Stage Reverse Soul Realm, yet you still look down on people now?"
As soon as these words emerged, Weng Yinke and others could hardly suppress their surprise, turning to Old Ling in unison.
"Ridiculous, I was just too careless; it was merely a sneak attack," Old Ling roared.
Weng Ting coldly replied, "A sneak attack is a form of strength; soul-snatching warfare allows sneak attacks too."
These two sentences immediately confirmed to all members of the Weng Family that Old Ling was indeed shot through by someone from the Reverse Soul Realm.
Then, Weng Ting looked at Weng Yinke again, "Grandfather, my explanation is that the people I invited are the ones I consider most suitable, and the ones I reject are those I find unsuitable. I dedicate myself one hundred percent to the soul-snatching battle."
Weng Ting spoke these words very slowly, yet they were imbued with a sense of domineering spirit.
However, all Weng Family members still wore faces full of doubt. Finally, Zhang Duiyi stepped forward and said, "Junior Sister Weng, you don't need to say much, let Junior Brother Sikong demonstrate, won't that shut everyone up?"
Saying this, Zhang Duiyi addressed Sikong Jing directly, "Junior Brother Sikong, would you be willing to make a move?"
